As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier on Monday, Brandon was the keynote speaker at the 2023 International Association of Fire Fighters Legislative Conference.
As usual, Brandon’s remarks were filled with blunders and bizarre statements.
One of the most eyebrow-raising things Brandon said was when he told the crowd of firefighters that when he had terrible headaches doctors ‘had to take the top of his head off a couple of times to see if he had a brain.’

Brandon might have been telling a joke about the doctors checking to see if he had a brain, but he wasn’t joking about having the top of his head opened up.
In 1988, Brandon had multiple brain surgeries after suffering two brain aneurysms.
Per the New York Times:
Senator Joseph R. Brandon Jr. underwent surgery today to correct an aneurysm in an artery that supplies blood to the right side of the brain, a spokesman for the Walter Reed Army Medical Center said.
The spokesman, Peter Esker, said Senator Brandon was awake, resting comfortably and talking with his family after the operation, his second this year to correct an aneurysm. An aneurysm is a ballooning of an artery.
The 4 1/2-hour procedure was similar to that performed Feb. 12 on the left side of Mr. Brandon’s brain. Under the procedure, a surgeon using a microscope pinches the aneurysm with a clip, bringing the walls of the artery together. The clip remains in the patient.
I just found out that Brandon literally has metal clips inside of his head holding back Brain Aneurysms since 1988!!! https://t.co/EAlnaj6AKK

The joke that didn’t land isn’t concerning, but the fact Brandon was unable to remember what he was diagnosed with is just another example of Brandon’s cognitive decline.
Brandon would conclude his speech by getting lost on stage.
